Bodee was born on July 12, 2022. He’s a very intelligent and playful animal who, through no fault of his own, has some behavioral issues. I am a 74 year old with health issues which have prevented me from properly socializing Bodee which has resulted in some separation anxiety and unwelcome behavior towards new acquaintances — he barks at anyone new giving the impression that he is threatening when in fact he’s shying away and wagging his tail. He has never attacked or bitten anyone. I recently moved into a retirement apartment complex and things are not working out for Bodee in this new environment. He has been with me since he was five months old and I’m very sad to be giving him up. Realistically, however, he needs a home with more activity and also a fenced yard or someone who is able to walk him regularly. Please give Bodee a chance. You won’t be disappointed.
